Thanks very much for the video. 👏👏👏👏 I have exactly same problem, same type of screw... I think we had a timing belt slippage, causing engine overpressures and 2 injectors popped badly snapping screws *I have a few questions for you,*... If you wouldnt mind. Want to learn from your situation as I'm in trouble too. 1) How did you get that problem?? Was it belt slippage too?? 2 ) Did you ger any internal damage to the engine??In seals, o-rings... or other more serious stuff?? 3) Did you redo the timing belt?? Was it too far out
👍👍 not sure the cause seals may of been chuffing to much pressure heat could at least there dual clamps on the golf 🥳 You can get seals o rings and bolts pretty cheap I’d replace them if you take the injector out. Be careful not to over tighten when you reinstall👍👍 Didn’t touch the timing belt on it you should be able to hear if there’s a prob with the belt will be ticking.good luck 🍀 Got a ford with 4 broken blots and cracked clamps 😭.
@@thecoincollector1 Thanks for the speedy reply. 👍 A bit of a long message down there, I hope I don't bore you. I have all the bits and parts now to go on after resettling the injectors including new screws, seals / o-rings , but I am a bit paranoid with the belt as 1 or 2 days before the injectors pop the belt casing (top part) was smoking a bit ( dodgy) . There was a small slow leak from that injector plastic casing. Not an issue, as I monitored it for months. Then I saw the belt casing smoking and thought a bit of that oil had gone into the belt and it was smoking oil for that reason... I never gave a sh***... Thought it wasn't an issue...then 2 days later 👉💥💥💣 at 130 Km/h in the motorway!!! Injectors 3 and 4 decided to try to escape 🤣🤣 Now I'm kind of pretty sure the belt tensioner packed up ( as things went bad a bit slowly) , then belt went on loose and started slipping away for a day or 2 until the pressures inside blew the injectors out. Just wondering on this, didn't go in there yet. I will start by trying to take out that screw. ... 3.5cm stuck in 😭 ... If I take that screw out 🤞🤞 I will torque it correctly not to overtight. Got my hands in the torque data in Nm. After and IF (BIG IF) I manage to come out of this mess, I will replace the screw that holds bracket for injectors 1 and 2 too. That screw should be no good now with all the overpressure internally. I'm a bit worried if this overpressure issue didn't damage any internal seals in the cylinders, but leave that for later. For a long time I think about opening a TH-cam channel and now on this issue I may actually go on and do a video about it. Thanks again for the video. Cheers
Used small bit first 1mm I think just drilled tiny hole in centre to stop 2mm slipping. You want it straight and central as possible mate. Careful not to snap extractor in there nightmare to drill out . Good luck 👍👍
Top man!! I just done exactly the same thing with snapping the thing,, it was a brand new from vw bolt as well (tossas there bolts are crap) , i had no idea what i was going to do until i searched and your video came up top trumps! i went straight down screw fix and got the remover thing,, the only thing i couldn't get was a drill but but i had a old one that managed to get enough into the bolt,,,,, yours was exactly the same side, it looks common!, i removed the rocker cover on mine,, looks like i didnt need to have done,,, the only thing now is do i risk doing it again,, as the injector was blowing with a new seal ,, thats why i tightened it and it snapped, did you put same size bolt back in there as i just watched a video where the guy uses a tap and dye thing to make 8mm bolt thread instead but thats bit above me ,, did you manage to get yours running again without any injector blow? thanks very much dude AAAAAAA++++++
Happy days mate 👍 yeah I used the same size bolt , I’d replace the injector seals if they have started to go much cheaper to replace seals than getting new injector and having it coded . Good luck 🤞
Big thanks for this video, i just snapped of mine as well, and i knew it would happen thats the hard truth because someone else have open and tighten 50 times changing injectors so ofcourse it will happen to me... :D You dont happen to have link for the universal fit package? :)
Bro I'm so glad you have done this video, I've just snapped on off TDI diesel "FUCK" over tightened it, just getting the bits to drill it out, A+++ thanks for helping us all out top man..
Update the 2mm was way too small so went in with 2.5 after, put the bolt remover in, was finger tight come out real easy. Job done took 15 mins with right tools :)
@@sellshortebay happy days mate 🎉the garage wanted a fair bit to sort mine out , think it cost me less than £10 for the tools 😂😂 bit of a pain but deffo worth the diy 👍👍👍
I’d sort it before it gets worse try borrow one of those cheap diagnosis scanners only cheap on Amazon, should tell you what injector is the problem then take it out could just be seals gone only cheap to replace
@@thecoincollector1 the clamp bolt was loose? which seems extremely strange, I’ve took it out inspected it.. looked ok, tightened it up for now & ordered a new bolt, I’ll order seals also 👍🏼
A few good mechanics will still do it , most seem to just replace parts or scrap them maybe not worth the time. There’s some mobile guys that specialise in it but costs ££££
@@thecoincollector1 I ended up getting a tread doctor to remove it because when I tried to get it out I made a mess of the top basically mushroomed the top and I couldn’t get a good centre punch hole on it to know I’m going straight
@@thecoincollector1 it’s a poor design really they should of done them as studs instead of stretch bolts now everyone I see is having the same problem and doing stud constructions
@@releasedmike definitely , seems to be very common on fiesta . must be most manufacturers tho. there's plenty of company's just doing snapped bolt removal. manufactures prob make more money fixing the problem than solving it
Just been through exactly this. THESE ARE A TOTALLY SHIT DESIGN. Lets use a bolt that's just itching to snap to hole not one but two injectors down in the hope that the copper seal is enough to prevent blow by (possibly on a brand new whistle clean engine). More often than not they don't seal and you end up with a whole pile of crud building up around your injector and then you have a fight on your hands trying to get the injector out. I took the injectors out and cover off to give myself the best access/chance of drilling and easy outing the bolt. Luckily I got it. Make sure and have the threads/bore totally free of oil otherwise it's even easier to snap the bolt. Was a bag of nerves re torquing the bolt
You were lucky, I dont know how but this advice is potentially costly for the inexperienced - No.1. You did not remove the bung below, you did not use a guide? And there is provision for one - also if your drill bit happens to wonder which is more likely! When you use your easy-out it goes between the alloy head and the bolt and snaps -- I am an engineer and have been called out to all kinds of nightmares - Broken drills, broken tap, broken extractor and failed helicoil attempts because people dont get that the hole is only long enough for the bolt and a smidge more - so wonder why with a tap or such like still below, the bolt does not fit. So to the layman this advice is pure luck to get it in the centre let along get the bolt out.
I really hoped that this would work for me... the issue was that the kit that removes the screw also broke in the hole.... ig the screw is that tight inside🥲😮💨
😭😭 bad times unless you can grip the end and turn it out 🤞🤞 you’ll prob have to go through it, you can get some heavy duty bits for dremel or diamond tip cobalt drill bits try not to go to wide or you could damage thread and need helicoil good luck 🍀🤞
@thecoincollector1 thx i think am going to make a new thread and puts a thicker screw and shorter one. It had enough to grab the metal. Drilling it would be hrd to keep it straight and not drill the block. Am not that good at those stuff😅 but thx for the comment
Just done exactly the same thanks for the advice on my way to screw fix now to get the tools.
Good luck 🤞 🤞👍👍
Nice video gives us all hope 🤞🏻
good luck 🤞slowly
Where did the swarf from drilling end up. My skoda snapped this bolt today and i must do the same
Start small drill bit 🤞
@thecoincollector1 did u need a small drill too. Looks like I'll hit the bulk head with my battery drill and not be able to drill square.

impressive skills. thanks for uploading, how did you make sure you drilled down the centre & straight to avoid damaging the head ?
@@johnmatthews1095 use smallest size bit first, try get nice and straight hole as well nightmare getting out with broken extractor 😭😭
@@thecoincollector1 thank you !
Good bit if DIY mate, I love working on my own motor
👍👍 gotta save 💰💰 somewhere still waiting on new bolt
I've got this exact problem right now. Please can u ask, what type of drill bit did you use? Cobalt? I'm struggling to even drill a hole
Just a 2mm titanium , only couple inches long so hardest part was getting the drill to grip it
@thecoincollector1 thanks I will give that a try
Bro what was that thing called the one you use to get the damage bolt after drilling
trying to do the same thing! How did u drill the hole? Did u use a hand drill or 90 degree adapter or did ur drill just fit above it?
Used small bit first 1mm I think just drilled tiny hole in centre to stop 2mm slipping. You want it straight and central as possible mate. Careful not to snap extractor in there nightmare to drill out . Good luck 👍👍

How did you take out metal bits caused by drilling?
I've got a little telescoping magnet works good but any magnet should do it
Why dont workshops do this, everyone says you have to remove the top of.
A few good mechanics will still do it , most seem to just replace parts or scrap them maybe not worth the time. There’s some mobile guys that specialise in it but costs ££££
How did you guide the drill? I have the same problem with 1.4 TDCI Ford engine.
Think I used one of the bigger tool extractors as a punch
I just tried the same thing unfortunately mine snapped off so it’s made the job even worse
a Tungsten carbide burr Dremel bit should get through a snapped extractor 🤞🤞
